Lowell Principal Phil Oates got taped to the wall for a good cause.

Lowell School Principal Phil Oates found himself taped to a wall, but it was for a good cause.

The Lowell PTO hosted a spare change challenge during our Book Fair in December. There were two jars to choose from: one to shave Mr. Oates’ beard, and the other being duct taped to the wall.

From the picture above you can see what the winning challenge was.

The effort raised over $600 dollars and Mr. Oates kindly participated.

The money went to purchase books for children who cannot afford them, as well as for teachers’ and staff’s classroom libraries.
